OPINION:
In Britain’s 2017 general election, the Labor Party had Brexit on its to-do list. In 2016, the party had agreed to carry out the will of the voters. But by obstructing Brexit, Labor decided not to honor the majority. Evidently, it misread the 2017 election results and started listening to the liberal mainstream media and elites, who said the voters never knew what they were voting for in the first place. Well, this year Britain’s voters spoke loud and clear: They knew what they were doing in 2016 by giving the Conservatives a landslide victory.
What I’ve noticed with the left is that its members never reflect thoroughly on a loss. Instead, they always find something or someone to blame. The Democrats credit Donald Trump’s victory in 2016 to the Russians. And they’re likely to lose badly again in 2020 because they still refuse to accept the will of the voters in 2016.
